The Ages are presented in chronological order, as are the events within those ages. As of now, these histories are covered only in the broadest of strokes. Once the show is complete and there’s no more need to worry about spoilers, I can back around and flesh these out in greater detail. For the moment, what’s presented should be enough to pique interest in the world’s past and get a campaign started.
 
 
 
A bit of terminology before we continue: Each Age has a Birth and a Death, and most of them also have a Balance.
 
 
 
The Birth of an Age is the event (or series of events) that brought about a new era in Fartherall’s history. Some events happen between Ages, in the time between the death of the previous age and the birth of the next. Called the Lost Ages, these cover vast swaths of the world’s unrecorded history.
 
 
 
An age’s Balance is the heart of the age, after the events heralding its birth have settled and before those presaging its death have begun. It is the golden era of the age, when the institutions and dangers of the time are at their height.
 
 
 
The Death marks the end of an age, and the often cataclysmic events that brought it to ruin. An Age’s death isn’t always the final event of an Age—it is rather the one that marks the inevitable transition into another.
